SPARERIBS AND SAUERKRAUT



Spareribs and Sauerkraut image

You just cannot do this one wrong. You don't have to drain the sauerkraut. You don't even brown the ribs; they brown without your help. The recipe was handed down to Camille MacKusick by her father-in-law, from the family archives. All sorts of magical juices ooze out of everything. When the last finger is licked and the last lip smacked, everyone will weep.

Categories     Beef     Bake     Beef Rib     Spring

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

8 country-style spareribs
1 1-pound can sauerkraut, drained
About one-half 18-ounce bottle barbecue sauce
No salt, no freshly ground black pepper!

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300°F. Choose a baking pan that will accommmodate the ribs in pieces or all hitched together, with the kraut in the space left over. Eight country-style ribs cut into a 6-rib and a 2-rib hunk, plus the can of kraut, fit perfectly in a 9-by-13-inch pan. For more ribs, get a bigger pan and more kraut.
  • Place the ribs in the pan and the sauerkraut in a mound beside them. Cover the ribs - not the kraut - with the barbecue sauce. Use as much as you like, maybe more than half the bottle, maybe less. Cover the pan tightly withaluminum foil and bake for 3 hours. Lift a corner of the foil near the end of the time to sneak a look. The ribs should be nicely browned and glazed and your mouth should water. Serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality spareribs: Look for ribs that are meaty and have good marbling. Avoid ribs that are too fatty or have a lot of gristle.
  • Season the ribs well: A good rub will help to enhance the flavor of the ribs. You can use a store-bought rub or make your own. Some popular spices to use include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cumin.
  • Cook the ribs low and slow: This will help to tenderize the ribs and make them fall off the bone. You can cook the ribs in a smoker, a slow cooker, or even in the oven. Just be sure to cook them until they are cooked through.
  • Make sure the sauerkraut is well-drained: If the sauerkraut is too wet, it will make the dish soggy. Be sure to drain the sauerkraut well before adding it to the pot.
  • Add some caraway seeds: Caraway seeds are a traditional addition to sauerkraut. They add a slightly bitter flavor that complements the sweetness of the apples and the richness of the pork.

Conclusion:

Sparerib sauerkraut supper is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. The ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender and the sauerkraut is tangy and sour. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
